Upcoming Speaking Engagements

  • (8:30 AM EST) VSM03 Workshop: Team Development for the Future with Agentic AI & GitHub Live! 360

    Most developers use GitHub Copilot daily — but when it produces the wrong output, hallucinates, ignores your instructions, or just stops being useful, most reach for trial and error. This full-day workshop changes that. Join GitHub forward-deployed engineers Mickey Gousset and Ken Muse as they take you deep inside how AI coding tools actually work — and how to get the most out of them.
  • (2:00 PM EST) VSW11 The Irresponsible AI Initiative Live! 360

    AI has made its way into every corner of software development – from generating code and making decisions to powering user-facing products. But with great power comes the great potential for a spectacular failure. Join Ken Muse and Mickey Gousset as we present a series of real-world case studies showcasing some of the most cringe-worthy, harmful, and avoidable mistakes developers and organizations have made with AI.
  • (8:00 AM EST) AIH02 Building the Perfect Beast: Customizing Your AI For Maximum Impact Live! 360

    AI tools like GitHub Copilot and Claude are powerful out of the box – but are you truly leveraging their full potential? Do you trust what the AI is suggesting, or are you constantly double-checking and tweaking its output? The difference between a helpful suggestion engine and a genuine AI collaborator that accelerates your development comes down to how well you’ve configured your environment.
  • (11:00 AM EST) Artificial Intelligence Live! Panel Discussion: Governance for Agentic AI Live! 360

    AI agents are designed to be persistent, goal-seeking systems – and without guardrails, that tenacity leads to runaway costs, denial-of-service-level demand on data systems, and malware-like probing of sensitive resources. Most of the industry’s attention has gone to agent capabilities, not controls. This panel brings together experts confronting these issues directly.
